Chapter 723 - 347: Divine Hidden Clan, Insect Race
At this point, Su Jiameng turned her gaze to Theo, a member of the Jialanluo Clan, "Many scientists speculate that the Jialanluo Clan is the continuation of this race, because the tribe members of the Jialanluo Clan are born beautiful, spiritually powerful, and far more technologically advanced than most interstellar species, almost the darlings of the creators... I used to think so too..."
The Jialanluo Clan is a race with hacks, possessing a special spiritual power, and the proportion of awakening telekinesis is far higher than other races, especially humans. However, this hack is nothing compared to that race!
"That race is called the Divine Hidden Clan, although the name sounds somewhat juvenile, no one dares to say that this race doesn’t deserve the title." Su Jiameng withdrew her gaze and directed it toward the insect cocoon, "But in the end, the Divine Hidden Clan completely vanished, just like no race knew where their origin was, they disappeared abruptly, leaving only a complete telekinesis system..."
"And it is precisely because of this telekinesis system that mind power users in other races have the opportunity to learn and master it..." Su Jiameng let out a self-mocking smile, "I always thought I was standing on the shoulders of giants looking at this vast universe, but only now do I understand that I’m just caught in a very interesting circular loop, the universe is far stronger than we can imagine."
Liang Xiaonuo and the other three were all top graduates of Augustus Academy, and though Su Jiameng didn’t state it outright, the subtext still made everyone’s hearts tremble. Could it be... that the Divine Hidden Clan... is actually... these thumb-sized people on the plants?
A more daring hypothesis is that the Divine Hidden Clan evolved to a certain extent from the Insect Race? If this is true, then they...
Su Jiameng seemed to have unveiled all the secrets long pent up in her heart, her emotions slightly stabilized, not as terrifying as before, "The Insect Race is a species from the depths of the universe, mindless but with an extremely terrifying evolutionary ability. As long as there is energy, they can evolve and keep evolving, no one knows where their limits are. I never dared link the Insect Race and the Divine Hidden Clan..."
Liang Xiaonuo and the others expressed their understanding, even though the introduction of the Divine Hidden Clan was brief, it could be perceived that this race was extraordinarily magnificent. However, the Insect Race? They just scoffed, definitely a "no peace till death" kind of species!
"Of course, it’s not to say that the Divine Hidden Clan is the evolved form of the Insect Race, but they absolutely have a connection..." Su Jiameng pointed at the thumb-sized people and said, "What initially made me associate them was the pattern on the buds..."
This pattern is unique to mind power users, similar to the pattern on the egg shell when two buns are still in it. But when tracing it to its roots, this pattern is actually the symbol of the Divine Hidden Clan! However, only after the extinction of the Divine Hidden Clan did this symbol become exclusive to mind power users. When she discovered this, an equation popped into her mind.
Insect Race = Divine Hidden Clan! Logically, Su Jiameng shouldn’t be so angry, but she thought deeper, and her in-depth speculation made her scared. In her second life, the appearance of the Divine Hidden Clan was earlier than all other races! By the time humanity stepped onto the interstellar stage, the Divine Hidden Clan had almost perished. Then, thousands of years later, the Insect Race disaster exploded... incredibly powerful beyond reckoning!
Then can she speculate that before the Divine Hidden Clan, there were other interstellar species? Or perhaps the Insect Race exterminated those creatures, and as time passed, the traces of those intelligent creatures were all buried in time.
After hundreds or even thousands of years of evolution, a new planet gave birth to new intelligent creatures, who gradually stepped out of their native planet onto this interstellar stage? Like a bizarre cycle, the disappearance of the Divine Hidden Clan, the growth of intelligent creatures, the return of the Insect Race, the near extinction of intelligent creatures, the dominance of the Divine Hidden Clan, and then gradually fading away over time...
The Insect Race and other intelligent creatures are adversaries, this needs no explanation, but what about the Divine Hidden Clan?
Su Jiameng had read quite a bit about the Divine Hidden Clan in the past and knew that this race, in some ways, was aloof and cruel, often waging wars against various interstellar species, always returning triumphant, but always with very legitimate reasons. Even if others knew the Divine Hidden Clan’s actions weren’t right, they still didn’t dare say anything, just had to endure...
But the Divine Hidden Clan has already perished, and Su Jiameng merely treats this race as a piece of history.
Unexpectedly... she unintentionally stumbled upon the origin of this race.
Her expression was extremely indifferent, according to the nature of the Insect Race, if these thumb-sized people truly evolved into the Divine Hidden Clan, then currently, all interstellar intelligent creatures really have no way out!
In fact, Su Jiameng’s speculation isn’t entirely correct either. Above the Insect Imperial is the Insect Emperor, and only when the Insect Emperor evolves further might the original Divine Hidden Clan come into being.
However, this particular Insect Imperial is rather special; it encountered slight deviations on its evolutionary path, leading to the current mutation. For those thumb-sized people on the plants to become a true Divine Hidden Clan, they would need endless energies!
Yet, when they absorb sufficient energy, what will emerge is not a single Divine Hidden Clan, but the initial batch of Divine Hidden Clan!
"Jiameng... what should we do now?" Even though Liang Xiaonuo and the others didn’t know what the Divine Hidden Clan was before, they could tell just by Su Jiameng’s expression that it’d be better if this race didn’t appear, "Could it be that we should set them all on fire?"
"Burn them?" Su Jiameng chuckled softly, a cold glint in her eyes, "Just doing so wouldn’t wipe out these guys. The might of the Divine Hidden Clan isn’t something outsiders can easily speculate on..."
"Then... what should we do?"
Su Jiameng looked toward those thumb-sized people; these guys were merely forms without life yet... (To be continued.
